Berry Blessings Raspberries in Rich Razzleberry
For each of the berries, I stamped the outline as usual (first generation) and stamped off once for the inside of the berries (second generation) so the colour was a bit more muted.

Art Gallery Stamp Set and Floral Gallery Dies Bundle
I am so in awe of the amazing Fine Art Floral Suite Collection that includes the Art Gallery stamp set and the Floral Gallery dies. Toss in some golden accents like the Golden Garden acetate, gorgeous ribbon and the oh, so much fun, gilded leafing and start creating.
Simple or detailed, elegant or casual, you can create cards that will wow the recipient no matter the occasion.
Bumblebee, Flirty Flamingo, Poppy Parade and Old Olive
The card base and layering piece were made using Bumblebee card stock. I embossed the layer with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder to add texture. It’s in the name after all.
Remember to remove the backing from the acetate
The backing on the Golden Garden Designer Specialty Acetate should be removed before assembling the card. An easy way to remove the backing is to attach a piece of scrap card stock with a glue dot to the corner and gently pull.
To ensure that every bit of the acetate would be used, I cut the pieces to 4″ x 2″.
The Fine Art Floral Suite Collections
I stamped the flower in Flirty Flamingo ink and then over stamped with Poppy Parade ink. The stem and leaves image is stamped in Old Olive. The “thank you” greeting was also stamped in Poppy Parade. And I adhered the flower and the greeting to the card with dimensional for a bit of height.
Love the shape of the greeting? It’s a die that included in the Floral Gallery dies in this size and a larger size to fit the 9 different greetings.
The Fine Art Floral Suite Collection includes all 8 products for $139.25 – the Art Gallery stamp set, Floral Gallery dies, Golden Garden Designer Specialty Acetate, Fine Art Ribbon, Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder, Heat & Stick Powder, Gilded Leafing Embellishment and Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper.
And with the purchase of the collection, you can choose 2 Level 1 or 1 Level 2 free products during Sale-a-bration.

Curvy Christmas Card

I love the color combination of Cherry Cobbler and Silver but my favourite part of the card is the Glitter Star Ornament at the top. It fills in the open space while keeping to the star theme and incorporating the silver color.

Dandelion Wishes by Stampin’ Up! featuring Bumblebee and Misty Moonlight
Dandelion Wishes by Stampin’ Up!
Although not a new stamp set, Dandelion Wishes has long been a favourite of mine. I find that this stamp set works for so many occasions – birthday, thank you, and in this case, a wedding shower card.
I wanted to add a little elegance to the card with the gold foil paper and other gold embellishments so I chose Bumblebee and Misty Moonlight as the colours for this card.
The Bumblebee card stock was embossed with the Dandelions 3D Embossing Folder for the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine before I assembled the card. I also added a stripe of Misty Moonlight designer series paper from the 2020 – 2022 In Color 6″ x 6″ pack which I layered onto gold foil paper.
Dandelion Wishes, Set of 6
I also stamped a couple of images from Beauty Abounds to the background of this card. The various sizes of circles were stamped in Bumblebee. I then stamped the dandelions in Misty Moonlight and once dry, I added the splatter image and heat embossed with gold powder.
Dandelion Wishes with Beauty Abounds
I also stamped a couple of images from Beauty Abounds to the background of the dandelion. The various sizes of circles were stamped in Bumblebee. I then stamped the dandelions in Misty Moonlight and once dry, I added the splatter image and heat embossed with gold powder.
I finished the card with a gold Metallic Pearl in the center of each dandelion.
The greetings in Dandelion Wishes are a fantastic mix of cursive and block lettering. For this card though, I choose to create my own greeting with the Well Said stamp set.
Beauty Abounds, Set of 13
Looking for a versatile stamp set for all of your occasions, Dandelion Wishes is the stamp set to pick.

Poinsettia Place Suite by Stampin’ Up!
I absolutely love the Poinsettia Place Suite by Stampin’ Up! Also called the Christmas Flower, poinsettias are gorgeous with all their lush layers. Although the traditional poinsettias are red, the plants are now available in whites, pinks, salmon and even green.
Poinsettias hold a special memory for me as I was married at Christmas. Our florist decided instead of flowers to decorate with white poinsettias. The front the church held dozens of plants all sprayed with a fine gold glitter to match the Christmas tree that was also trimmed only in white and gold.
It’s been a few years now since I was married but I still remember how breathtaking the row upon row of poinsettias was at the front of the church. And every year I buy a poinsettia – or two – for the house.
When it comes to Christmas stamp sets, poinsettia images are a personal favorite. And this Poinsettia Place Suite that includes the Poinsettia Petals stamps and dies makes beautiful layered cards that remind me why this Christmas flower is a must have.
Poinsettia Petals Bundle in Calypso Coral
I heat embossed these poinsettia petals with gold powder onto watercolor paper. With a water painter and Calypso Coral ink, I colored the leaves and then let them dry. To add texture, I crinkled the leaves a little before assembling the flowers.
To get the variegated look on the petals, I used the water painter and “pounced” the brush so the ink was heavier in some parts. I used the Poinsettia Petals designer series paper as one of the layers and added the Gilded Gems as the center and as an accent to the card.
Poinsettia Place Suite in Rococo Rose
For this card, I heat embossed again using gold powder but this time onto Vellum. I coloured the poinsettias and leaves on the back with a sponge dauber using Rococo Rose and Old Olive inks. The gorgeous designer paper is called Plush Poinsettia Specialty paper and really pops with the Whisper White card stock from underneath.
I added a gold center and accents with the Metallic Pearls. This package is one of my favourite accessories. Included are 121 gold and 121 silver pearls so you have enough pearls to create flower centers like this one.
Poinsettia Place Suite in Whisper White
Again I heat embossed with gold powder, this time using Whisper White card stock. The woodgrain paper is another design from the Poinsettia Petals designer series paper.
I kept the card simple by not colouring the poinsettia instead adding a pearl and rhinestone center Beaded Pearl. Did you also notice the veining on the leaf from the die?
Now that November is here, we can focus on our Christmas card and projects. Have you decided which products are your favourites from the August – December 2020 Mini catalogue?

This Peony Garden Suite, Best Wishes card is a new favorite. I love the 3D peony as well as the combined script and block greetings I added with the Well Said stamp set and Well Written dies.
I find myself reaching for the Peony Garden Suite bundle with the Prized Peony stamps and Peony dies a lot lately. And if you purchase the stamps and dies as the Prized Peony bundle, you save 10%
The big, beautiful flower for this Peony Garden Suite Best Wishes card was easy to assemble by working from the smallest flower to the biggest always aligning with the bottom edge. I did cut out two sets of flowers using the first as a test run for the assembly. It also helped with the volume of the flower to curl the flower petals with my bone folder before putting it all together.
I completed the card front with paper from the coordinating Peony Garden Designer Series Paper and added Silver Foil paper to work with the greys and blue.
As this card was for a bridal shower, I finished the card with another greeting from the Well Said stamp also in Seaside Spray.

Beautiful Friendship – stunning new In Colors and Flirty Flamingo
I was really looking forward to receiving the Beautiful Friendship stamp set and indulging in all the card making this set demands. Whether you stamp a single image or create an entire background like I did on this card, you know you are going to be making gorgeous cards.
Flirty Flamingo ink was added to four of the new In Colors for 2019-2021 – Pretty Peacock, Terracotta Tile, Seaside Spray and Rococo Rose – to make this vibrant stamped piece.
These colors are definitely new favourites but it is hard to choose just one. I love using them all together as they coordinate so well. And Flirty Flamingo fit right in.
And speaking of favourites, I have to recommend the Stitched Nested Labels. There are so many ways to use these new dies. As a greeting, a background for a stamped image or even as a layering piece for the card. Or all three together.
Beautiful Friendship, Set of 13 stamps, $28.00
I added a few Pretty Peacock Faceted Dots to the card as a little bit extra. The 2019-2021 In Color Faceted Dots include 18 dots in each of the five new colours for a total of 90. I am using them so much on so many cards and projects.

Want to Inspire? You can with the Silhouette Scenes and Sweet Silhouettes Dies bundle.
I was so drawn to this set of dies – especially the dandelion – and couldn’t wait to start making cards with the Sweet Silhouette dies. I also really like the uniqueness of the included sentiments – inspire, adventure, forever.
When planning this card, it was a no brainer to design this card around Poppy Parade as it features in the colour-washed background I used from the coordinating designer series paper called See A Silhouette.
And the card needed a little something more. So, the Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder was used to create a background with lots of texture for the layering piece on the bottom of the card.
I also wanted to make sure the dandelion really was the focus of the card by creating a frame with the Stitched Rectangles dies. If you don’t own these already, you really should. This set of dies can be used to create lots of layering pieces as well as frames and more.
All that was left was to embellish the card. I coloured a few Basic Rhinestones with the Basic Black Dark Blends marker and added various sized rhinestones to the card.
Ready to Inspire? You can with the Silhouette Scenes and Sweet Silhouettes Dies. Buy them as a bundle and save 10%.
See A Silhouette Bundle includes the Silhouette Scenes stamp set and Sweet Silhouettes Dies – 10 stamps and 5 dies

To adhere the cut out “inspire” to the card, I used the Multipurpose Liquid glue. Place a few small dots on the back of the word varying the placement so all the edges will adhere. Allow the glue to rest for a minute or so. Then gently add the greeting to the card and allow to dry.

Don’t you love all the layers that make up this card?
I recommend cutting out the frame first from your cardstock and then positioning the cardstock into the embossing folder to add the detail to the frame.
Behind the greeting, I added texture with one of the included stamps and Crumb Cake ink. I wanted to background image to be subtle so I stamped off once or twice onto scrap paper.
I added a punched out daisy made with the Medium Daisy punch to the card as a corner element and embellished with sequins and faceted dots.
The card uses Rococo Rose and Terracotta Tile in addition to Crumb Cake. The new In Colors are quickly becoming favourites and are all featured in the Woven Threads Designer Series Paper package.

Looking for a stamp set to make cards that celebrate the men in your life? Create masculine cards with the Geared Up Garage stamp set and Garage Gears Dies.

This paper pack has 4 different designs in all five new In Colors. To make the Seaside Spray the focus of the card, I stayed with neutrals – Basic Black, Smoky Slate, Basic Gray and Whisper White – for the rest of the card.
The background of the card was made with a few stamped images and gears cut out with the coordinating Garage Gears dies.
